Review summary

I just can't say enough about this cruise line. So thoughtful and well done. Kids, no kids, young singles, old folks, families - Go Go Go. Trust me, you will have the best time and Disney will be your first choice for your next cruise. Oh yes, there will be a next cruise!!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
So many people and I was so nervous about how the busy-ness of it all would affect the process. I couldn’t have been more wrong. So easy and organized and completely without incident.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was delicious! Our servers were just the best!! I really enjoyed that they follow you around to each dining room - it was lovely to get to know them a bit. They were so attentive, that after the first night, they knew what we preferred to drink and had it ready for us when we sat down.

Animator's Palate

Crush “swam” to our table and talked with each of us for a couple of minutes. The look on the kids’ faces was priceless and something I will cherish for many years to come

Cove Cafe

5 out of 5

We do like our coffee drinks :). While your coffe in your dining room is fine, it was nice to splurge a little. Our Norwegian barista was the best and so much fun to chat with

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Our crew had 3 kids under 3 years, so most of our time was spent in Nemo’s Reef. They had so much fun there and it was alway controlled “chaos”:)

AquaDuck

This is such a fun water slide!! Sometimes the wait time gets up there, but stand fast - you won’t regret it!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We had opportunity to see a couple of the shows and WOW!! They truly are Broadway quality and there is not a bad seat in the house

Children's Programs

We did not untilize these opportunities as our kids were small and we wanted to keep them with us.

Nemo's Reef

5 out of 5

What a lovely place for little ones. The water slide is nice and soft, so no bonked heads:). Very busy for sure, but controlled and well monitored and maintained. This is where we spent 80% of our time:). Haha (3 kids under 3 yrs)

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Servers were amazing and our room stewards were so attentive and helpful in all ways. So good with the kids and asking us when we would be back for nap so that they could tidy up our room before hand so that we could come back and nap quietly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
WOW!! The ship is so clean and shiny:)!! People working around the clock in all bathrooms in the common areas - just nonstop!! Hardworking and always with a smile

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
I WANT THAT BED!! The beds were beyond comfortable and cozy!! We slept so well - I can’t even begin to tell you:). The curtain is really very soundproof and allows you to put kids to bed and still be able to function on the other side without waking them up. So well thought out!

Ship tip

Pack light - Disney has nice shampoo/conditioner/lotion. No need to weigh yourself down with heavy toiletries or loads of clothes. Such an easy going atmosphere - just relax and enjoy!!

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
No excursions here, just easy peasy embark

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
No excursions. We spent most of the day on the ship, enjoying fewer fellow cruisers. We did get off and walk to a beach nearby and swam. Friendly people, just many vendors vying for your attention.

Castaway Cay (Disney Private Island)

5 out of 5
HOLY COW!! Just the best!! So many chairs and umbrellas - no need to worry about getting one. Disney went above and beyond here. The BBQ food was to die for and again, just the friendliest people!!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Easy, easy,easy. All so organized and well put together. It went much more quickly than I had anticipated.
